Bad back may force Guardiola to miss Valencia game (AP)

BARCELONA, Spain (AP)—Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola may miss his team’s Spanish league match at Valencia due to lower back pain.

The Spanish champions say Guardiola missed training Tuesday to undergo treatment for the problem and may not make the trip to Valencia on Wednesday. Assistant coach Tito Vilanova will take charge if the 40-year-old Guardiola is unable to make it.

While Guardiola was absent from training, Xavi Hernandez continued his recovery from a leg injury. Defender Carles Puyol and goalkeeper Victor Valdes again trained separately with next week’s Champions League match against Arsenal in mind.

Barcelona goes to third-place Valencia with a seven-point lead over Real Madrid.
